ALUCOBOND® PLUS

Aluminium composite panel

ALUCOBOND® plus has been developed exclusively for the higher requirements of the fire regulations in architecture.

Due to its mineral-filled core ALUCOBOND® plus meets the higher requirements of the fire classifications. It is hardly inflammable and offers all the proven product properties of the ALUCOBOND® family, such as flatness, formability, resistance to weather and simple processing.

ALUCOBOND® plus is a composite panel consisting of two aluminium cover sheets and a mineral-filled core. The superb properties of this material boost one’s inspiration and offer architecture a whole new range of solutions - whether your project is a private home, a public building, a corporate headquarter and offices, or a trading or industrial complex - or if your organisation wants to create a new image-building Corporate Design - whether for petrol stations, car showrooms, banks or supermarkets.

Further details

ALUCOBOND® plus perfectly adapts to the contours of the buildings forming complex, flowing elements. It is the combination of formability, flatness, stability and weather resistance that characterizes this material. Due to its composite structure, ALUCOBOND® plus can take on many different shapes. It is almost like a different skin wrapping the building structure. Its perfect formability does not affect its stability and flatness. The high rigidity of the panel remains.

Lightness / Rigidity

The composite structure of ALUCOBOND® plus results in an impressive strength-to-weight ratio, even when comparing large panel sizes. Despite its low weight, which makes ALUCOBOND® plus easy to transport and handle in the factory and on site, its rigidity and high strength make the panels keep their shape and remain flat, even when exposed to extreme temperature changes.

They are highly resistant to weather conditions and unaffected by industrial emissions. These properties are achieved using UV-resistant bonding agents. For standard finishes, fluorpolymeric top coats (e.g. PVDF) are used. They are the result of a continuous development of innovative lacquer systems and vouch for the know-how and competence of 3A Composites in the field of modern lacquer technology.

All surface coats are applied in a continuous coil-coating process, i.e. with a continuous coating and stove-lacquering procedure.

Mill-finished ALUCOBOND® plus surfaces are without treatment and show a finely rolled structure. The mill-finished surfaces require special handling of the panels. For exterior application no decorative demands should be made.

Sustainability

Environment, Safety and Quality

Today 3A Composites is recognized worldwide as one of the leading companies in the field of sustainability - in fact not only within its own branch but also among other diversified producers and raw material processing companies throughout the world. 3A Composites's commitment to sustainability enables the company to make decisions that create the highest economic, social and ecological value, by taking the requirements of all the relevant groups into consideration.

The company commits to continuous self improvement programs for environmental protection, many of which exceed government regulations. 3A Composites continues to serve as a global leader in this field.

During the life cycle of ALUCOBOND® plus composite panels, no substances containing CFC are set free at any time. The core material does not contain any nitrogen, chlorine or sulphur. Therefore, selecting ALUCOBOND® plus for projects which require environmental-friendly materials is literally a natural choice.

Life Cycle

Recycling

ALUCOBOND® plus is fully recyclable, i.e. both the core material and the aluminium cover sheets are recycled and can be used in the production of new material.
